Right, but the usage information lists the instruments that it
thinks are available, and I was interested in whether and what
serial ports are on your system, and whether your instrument
is USB connected or not.
2.I have been unclear, sorry. I do supply a basename for the .ti1 file
(it's called "Schermo.ti1"). Here, I just managed to reproduce this
behaviour again:
ludovico@gogo:~/Desktop/Targets/display$ dispread -k schermetto.cal Schermo
dispread: Error - tcgetattr failed with 'Input/output error'
ludovico@gogo:~/Desktop/Targets/display$ dispread -kschermetto.cal Schermo
Place the instrument on its reflective white reference Serial no.
310345,
and then hit any key to continue,
or hit Esc, ^C or Q to abort:
Well, I'm guessing you're using an Eye-One Pro, since otherwise you'd
need to supply a -y flag.
Unfortunately I can't reproduce your problem. The command line
parser doesn't care whether there is a space or not between a flag
and it's argument, so the connection with the tty error is unclear.
It would help to know whether you have serial ports or not
(hence my request that you show what dispread -? returns).
I instrumented all the calls to tcgetattr, and could see no
difference in the calls with or without a space.
Note that if for some reason the communications to a USB instrument
breaks down (ie. killing the program with the device open does this
for some instruments), then it may not be seen until the instrument
is physically disconnected and reconnected. This will cause the
program to look for instruments on serial ports, which (depending
on your system), could explain tcgetattr failures.
